Answer:

The breast pad that comes from the mother.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Baby Kendra will prefer the breast pad that comes from the mother as according to research the babies have a very strong sense of smell through which they can detect the smell fo their mother.
  • The smell of their mother comes from the mother's sweat that is secreted from the sweat glands that are located around the nipple in the areolar skin.
  • Once the mother gives birth to a baby these sweat glands enlarge and it is the smell of this sweat that the baby recognizes and gets attracted to.
  • Due to this, the baby will choose the breast pad that comes from the mother.
